Manama : The Bahrain Tourism and Exhibitions Authority (BTEA) said it is holding a trip in collaboration with Raiffeisen Tours - Kooperation (RTK) Top Agents. A total of 66 visitors were welcomed to the Kingdom; including 40 representatives from the leading German travel agencies. RTK is one of the largest European organizations in the travel industry and currently consists of 4,000 travel agencies. The BTEA expressed its gratitude for the selection of the Kingdom of Bahrain as a destination for RTK’s Top Agents annual trip.

“The trip comes as a result of meetings held with RTK during ITB Berlin 2018 which was held back in March where the BTEA was provided with the opportunity to showcase the diversified tourism facilities of the Kingdom; as well as highlight Bahrain’s potential for tourism due to its rich culture and diverse range of offerings,” said the CEO of BTEA, Shaikh Khaled bin Humood Al Khalifa.
